Which of the following is an example of Force Health Protection activity?

• A. Preventive vaccines for soldiers
• B. Wound care in a field hospital
• C. Emergency evacuation
• D. Medical logistics

Answer: (A)

Force Health Protection focuses on stopping health threats before they affect the force, preserving readiness. Vaccinating soldiers exemplifies that preventive approach by reducing susceptibility to infectious diseases and preventing outbreaks that could debilitate units. The other options involve treating injuries or ensuring care and supplies after exposure—wound care in a field hospital treats wounds, emergency evacuation moves injured personnel to higher care, and medical logistics keeps medications and equipment available. While all are important to health and readiness, they are not preventive measures aimed at keeping the force healthy in the first place.
